Your Appraisal ProsReviews of yourappraisalpros.com

I rarely leave negative reviews or reviews at all for that matter, but others need to know how this business operates. I paid Shawn $459, through his PAYPAL invoice, for a pre-purchase vehicle inspection in Northern California. He failed to find an inspector, so I requested a refund for services never rendered. Over two months, I faced constant excuses, delays, and poor communication. Shawn falsely claimed he vetted three vehicles; in reality, he only commented briefly on links I sent, and zero inspections occurred. He eventually refunded only $150, keeping $309 after stating he would refund me if he was unable to locate an inspector. After trying to resolve this privately, I filed a small claims lawsuit. Shawn failed to appear in court and judgment was ruled in my favor after informing the court of the issue. I am now working with an attorney to enforce this judgment against American Classic Appraisal LLC via an order of examination. While the remaining balance isn't life-changing, this is a matter of basic business integrity. He may have good reviews on this platform, but my experience was defined by limited service, broken promises, and legal non-compliance. Follow up: Interesting reply considering your yelp reply on this same issue. Here is what you said, "We went through 3 vehicles for you in our search and provided guidance all the way through. We weren’t able to inspect the last one in the time you asked for and you wanted a full refund even though we had spent hours in conversation and messages in your search. I wish you luck in finding your vehicle but I’m definitely glad that you won’t be using us." Does that ring a bell??? Which story do you want to stick with?? Also, text and receipts don't lie, I have everything saved which was presented to the court as evidence. Nice try making up a story that I was the seller and reaching out to Trustpilot for trying to get my post removed. Court records don't lie Order(s) have been entered in the above styled case.

Update: Shawn and I have very different views of the inspection that was carried out and of our conversations about the vehicle. I was an over- exuberant buyer…and that’s on me. The only way I would use this business or any other inspection business would be to go with the inspector in person. Would never again buy a vehicle without laying my eyes on it. The vehicle I bought is costing me at least $15,000+ to get in running condition just so I can sell it at a huge loss. Live and learn. Shawn and team did an excellent job and made me feel better about buying a vehicle that I can't see in person. They set up the inspection, and it was completed within two days. I feel they went above and beyond -- Shawn even helped me think through my offer and sent me an appraisal for my insurance company. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
